Front seat Replacement 2015 28DS

Hello,

Has anyone replaced the front seats on their rig? The stock seats are awful and my wife needs more support for her back. If you have replaced them, please let me know what you got.

Thank you!

Jon

I just cut mine down and it made a big difference cut 2” off the height added a pipe and bolted it together. I also added 3/4” to the front only so you don’t feel like your falling off. 2 7/8 pipe I had to grind it down a bit to get a snug fit. Both seats took 3/4 of a day and $15.00

Your welcome

The pipe is 2 7/8 I had to grind it a little so it fit snug. 2” cut is good for a 5’10 or 6’ person if shorter I would go 2 1/2. The wood filler I used is 3/4 but I had a 1/2 in there to start. Is a easy figure when the seat is in place. Just turn it and add or subtract. Hope this helps
Ian
